Women’s Empowerment International (WE)

Women's Empowerment International (WE), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization headquartered in San Diego, CA, was founded with a mission to empower women with tools to work their way out of poverty, care for their families, and strengthen their communities.

Since its inception, WE has provided $2.1 million in funding for programs that provide practical, holistic support centered around women’s economic empowerment in seven countries, including the U.S. (in San Diego County and Puerto Rico), Haiti, Honduras, Mexico, and Uganda. Focusing on the most under-resourced communities, WE enables women entrepreneurs to build their job, life, and health skills, obtain small business loans, and launch sustainable income-generating enterprises that serve their families, villages, and communities.

Join us in the empowerment of women. Donate, attend an event, join a giving circle, volunteer—there are many ways to get involved and all help is welcome!
